I think this can be regarded as a Module::Build bug.

I guess "our" is a syntax error for 5.005 and therefore fails during
compiletime. "require x.yyy" is a runtime check and would fail later.
I think you can safely write "use 5.006;" instead of "require 5.006;"
to force a compiletime version check.
